    Hey family, it's me you're friend in the US... West Virginia.
    Just letting you know that the government screws ya at EVERY CORNER! We purchase a car and pay taxes... then every year we have to pay taxes on the car again in order to get a sticker to be legal, then the car has to be inspected to have another sticker to be considered legal. We also have to show proof of auto insurance before either of those stickers can be released. I never quit understood why we have to pay taxes when purchasing and pay taxes every year, ( and it's not cheap).
    Well any time you make your way to the US, please feel free to swing by. Much love loads of blessings.... keep going on....

    While you're in Brisvagas, watch the footy played in heaven, Rugby League and the Broncos play. They always fleece you with extra this and extra that in fees. You must be excited about getting the new van (chuckle).

    The success and enjoyment of what you are intending to do is dependent on how thorough you were in 'research and planning'.

    also i believe she has registered the vehicle wrong. its any vehicle OVER 4.5 Tonne is classed as a commercial vehicle in Queensland. therefore it still being classed as a passenger vehicle. the price was still close to $5000 for it. as the way she has registered it actually requires luke to have a Light Rigid truck license

      @mitchmchugh4648 Před rokem

      Yeah that's exactly what I thought..
      I would definitely look into that before hitting the road because you don't want to be stuck on the side of the road with a licence for a car you can't drive because of their stuff up

    Hey guys, great video as always! Knowing what you know now, is the GVM upgrade really worth it or could you have done without it? Like was it necessary enough to go to all this effort and money?

    If you bought this car and drove it away from the dealer you would have paid the stamp duty then. So it's no different, you just paid it later on. Also the company dealing with the gvm should have done it all for you, that's shithouse that they made you guys deal with registering it all.

    • @thatfalzonfamily
      @thatfalzonfamily  Před rokem

      yes but you still have to pay it?

    • @chalkss
      @chalkss Před rokem +1

      @NXT STOP - Falzon Family yes, any new car still has the stamp duty cost when it gets registered. Dealers usually call them "on road costs"
